Gus Hansen experienced a marvelous year on the World Poker Tour where he was the only player to make it to the closing game in three of the competitions. Gus Hansen has been seen on High Stakes Poker on The Game Show Network where he paid $400, 000 to play. You might remember one of the largest pots in big stakes poker recorded history competing against Daniel Negreanu. Gus won a massive pot with 4 of a kind against Daniel’s full house. Gus has made many tv poker appearances and is thought to be one of the best bettors anywhere in the world. While participating in internet poker, a different side of Hansen has appeared. Gus often plays in the 200/400 No Limit maximum buy-in of Forty Thousand dollars. Gus usually buys in for the min of Sixteen Thousand dollars and gambles very weak. He waits for a decent hand and then goes all-in. I accept that Gus is an excellent poker player but certainly not even close to the regular players at 200/400NL. Unless Gus is flat broke, he has little or no reason to play at the table with the min buy in.
Playing for the minimum takes a majority of the ability out of deep stack poker. Hansen is supposed to be 1 of the best players in the world but he cannot buy in for the total amount. I believe tv can alter our perception of the real world every now and then. The best poker players anywhere in the world might be guys you have won’t have heard of. Gus can be found betting on online poker on Full Tilt. He usually competes in big stakes omaha hold’em and hold’em. Gus Hansen has shown himself as a competition player. Can he back up his talents in money games?
